S. Immler, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), NASA, and Universities Space Research Association; R. Petre, GSFC; and P. Brown, Pennsylvania State University, on behalf of the Swift- satellite team, report on Swift Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT; wavelength range 170-650 nm) and X-Ray Telescope (XRT; energy range 0.3-10 keV) observations of SN 2005gj obtained on Nov. 24.181 UT. A new source is detected at R.A. = 3h01m11s.91, Decl. = -0o33'13".2 (equinox 2000.0), when compared to Digitized Sky Survey images – consistent with the reported Sloan Digital Sky Survey II position in CBET 247. UVOT magnitudes are V = 17.5 (641-s exposure), UVW1 [181-321 nm] = 19.1 (80 s), UVM2 [166-268 nm] = 20.0 (1272 s), and UVW2 [112-264 nm] = 19.5 (2847 s); statistical and systematic errors are 0.1 mag each. No x-ray source is detected at the position of SN 2005gj in a simultaneous 4695-s XRT observation. The 3-sigma upper limit to the (0.3-10-keV band) count rate is 1.85 x 10**-3 counts/s, corresponding to an x-ray flux of 1.06 x 10**-13 erg cm**-2 s**-1 for an assumed thermal plasma spectrum with a temperature of 8 keV and an absorbing foreground column density of 7.08 x 10**20 cm**-2 (Dickey and Lockman 1990, ARAA 28, 215).
